migration/ram: Handle RAM block resizes during postcopy
Resizing while migrating is dangerous and does not work as expected. The whole migration code works with the usable_length of a ram block and does not expect this value to change at random points in time. In the case of postcopy, relying on used_length is racy as soon as the guest is running. Also, when used_length changes we might leave the uffd handler registered for some memory regions, reject valid pages when migrating and fail when sending the recv bitmap to the source. Resizing can be trigger *after* (but not during) a reset in ACPI code by the guest - hw/arm/virt-acpi-build.c:acpi_ram_update() - hw/i386/acpi-build.c:acpi_ram_update() Let's remember the original used_length in a separate variable and use it in relevant postcopy code. Make sure to update it when we resize during precopy, when synchronizing the RAM block sizes with the source.
